Cooling Fan/Shroud with 4cm Blower and Sensor for Wanhao D6/Ultimate

youmagine

This shroud is printed in two parts that slide together seamlessly. Included with it is a M12x1mm nut designed specifically for the proximity sensor. In addition, you'll need to print two 5x6mm posts and carefully remove a small bridge between the holding posts to accommodate the fan on the shroud. I utilized a GDStime Technology 24V 0.1A 40mm blower for optimal performance. At maximum output, this setup produces results comparable to what a standard 50mm blower achieves at 25-30% capacity, as seen in the reference design (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2235389). To secure the fan in place, you'll require two 10mm M2 and two 12mm M2 nuts. The probe used is an Omron product, specifically the E2B-M12KN08-WP-B1 model, which operates as a PNP device. To utilize it effectively, connect it to a 7805 voltage regulator to reduce the voltage down to 5V, and configure it using the Marlin duplicator 6 firmware's PNP Configuration.h settings. This probe features an impressive working distance of 8mm in a compact M12 form factor. To set it up correctly, screw it in until it is flush with the bottom of the shroud. This configuration is compatible with a 1mm PEI sheet attached to the build plate. For further reference on setting up the probe, consult the description provided by 1bigpig's probe mount (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2081168).
